Its so great!

First of all, I never have to reboot my phone because it does it AUTOMATICALLY! Yep, it seems that this phone is such a wonderkind that when it feels it needs to reboot for whatever reason, maybe the cache is just too full, it just does it on its own. Its like Magic!

Secondly, it seems to know when I don't want to talk to people! That's right, I can be in conversation and just like magic the microphone cuts out and the other person can't hear me. This is perfect because this allows me to say all kinds of swear words to the caller and they can't hear a thing. This is especially helpful when I do not like the caller very much. Whoever designed this phone is a genius!

Third, and this is probably my favorite, is that it knows when my data is going too high! If I am in a 4g area but I am using too much data, it just shuts 4g off for me, and chooses to only use 3g! Then, when 3g is even too much, it just drops all data completely! Saving the day again!

I can't express how much I love this phone. I don't know what new developer idea is going to come next, but my guess is whenever my battery is going to overheat due to how much super powers it is using, it will auto eject my battery with maybe a cool little parachute attached so it doesn't fall harshly on the ground, thus saving my precious battery.

For Valentines day, I will definitely be getting my ex-gf this phone so she can enjoy the wonders of it too!

You won't have to beg. I barely got the words "I am having problems with my Galaxy Nexus" out of my mouth and the guy offered me a Razr. If you want a Razr or a Rezound, it will be offered to you. No begging necessary.

This is turning out to be a fiasco for Google. Hopefully they will learn their lesson and never go with Samsung again for a nexus.

I have $200 invested in accessories so I am staying with this phone for now and will see what the OTA update brings.

Sorry you are having problems. Mine reboots about once a week, but it comes back so fast that it doesn't bother me.

Never had the mic cut off on me.

Don't have LTE near me yet but the new update fixes it.

Sounds like you got a bad unit, dumb luck I guess.

That rzr maxx battery looks sick. I hate using two batteries to get through the day.

Of course they'll push the RAZR/Rezound on you, both have more Verizon bloatware and nonsense.

Wow. I tapped on this thread to read something positive. I was dumb i suppose.

If you are having so many problems, then exchange it. However, the Galaxy Nexus is a joy to use for me and i have no such issues. Best phone i have ever owned by far.

I hope you get something that suits you.

Hopefully I'm not going to jinx myself, but since having the Nexus it's not rebooted once for me. I'd think instead of the phone being the problem that you have an app that's to blame. Dunno, but if it was the hardware I think everyone would have the problem. It's been rock solid for me.
